Qualos Junior Lathe Handbook
Hey everyone I picked up a Qualos Junior Lathe today just wondering if any one has a handbook for it or knows where I can get one. Plus if you have any other info that’d be awesome. Thanks

Manual
Dont think there is a manual available but others may know more about it. Seems to be a few of those juniors about . The stand appears to be on the flimsy side , it could be more robust .

Qualos Junior headstock
I'm a total lathe novice but recently acquired a Qualos Junior - I am doing a minimalist refit, it seems to be OK as far as I can judge.
I am trying to remove the shafts from the headstock, mainly so I can fit a new drive belt.
Prior to this, everything has been easy to dismantle, but I am struggling here. I see from the forum that the user manuals were not available.
However, always the optimist! Anyone got a manual now?
Thanks

Short of replacing your Vee belt with a Link belt you may be able to get some insight to removing your spindle by looking at the spindle removal from a Hercus 9 R or 260.

Qualos Junior Placard
qualos placard.JPG
Here is the placard on mine.
Serial number is 110 - this is on the tailstock and carriage as well as the bed.
Made a little more progress on the headstock today - its more about gently persuading it to come apart, and I dont like to use force anywhere near the plastic parts.

Working now.
Got the headstock apart, a new belt fitted and back together again. Thanks.
